Hi

Ok, so I'm a newbie here and have only recently bought my first van. An '81 hightop which is having a new interior put in now. Externally, it's painted entirely white and I want to break it up with a retro stripe running horizontally along the body work. I'm struggling to find these on line. Can anyone recommend somewhere / anyone who can help get me my stripes!? I'm based down in Surrey, so south england would be great.

Any ideas or suggestions would be really great!

Thanks

You could try a local sign-maker, I got some stripes made up for my motorbike by one in Plymouth. They print them up on vinyl to any design & size you want. They did all the lettering & logos as well for less than £25. I took down a photo of the bike with the stripes digitally added and they scaled them up to fit the bike.

Nice QPR effect. Excellent!

Loads of pin striping on ebay! Where did you look?

Hi Macca,
Here's a copy of a reply I got when I asked a similar question which maybe helpful - and Sarah's a club member too.
Got my stripes through the post after agreeing the design by e-mail.
Depends if you know how to apply them, but was much more cost effective than the local sign writers.


We have many Decals already available on our website www.mosake-partners.com but we can also supply custom decals to your requirements. We have in the past supplied The Villa 3 Logo to a customer, and going off your image the rest would be pretty simple to replicate. We would need a guide on the dimensions you'd require your decals at in order to give you a price but feel free to PM us or email direct to sales@mosake-partners.com if you are still in need of a price for these decals.
Small piece of background about us:
We are a small family business and pride ourselves not only on the quality of our product but also on the aftersales service we extend to all our customers. We have sold a great many of the VW decals and decals sets to private individuals and dealers alike - all who have been extremely happy on quality and service.
My name is Sarah of Mosake-Partners.com we are based in Hyde, Cheshire, SK14

I dont have any experience of this company but here is another option:

Thanks for all the replies. I thought I had a good look on ebay, but maybe not thorough enough! I was down on the coast today in Sussex and saw a lovely 2 tone van - painting would be my preference but it's just so expensive I'll have a look at these ideas. Cheers!
